Hello Yewondwossen, Sorry, no improvement here. I'm not getting an error, but I got a time out, while posting (DescribeFeatureType) to the original server URL (http://map.ns.ec.gc.ca/MapServer/mapserv.exe?map=/mapserver/services/en vdat/config.map). Also, the other service I mentioned, http://www.bsc-eoc.org/cgi-bin/bsc_ows.asp, uses this same URL as online resources, which already gave the template error.
I'm a bit out of options right now. As already mentioned, when I'm using GET, then everything works fine, so our client will be able to access MapServer. I'll try a few other MapServer WFS's, and see what they do. (Using POST, and the online resource URL's.) There are quite a lot of them online. If they all give the same result, then I'm going to file a bug in Trac. It is no coincidence if several servers, which are set up independently, all have the same problem.

Looking into this thread, you mentioned a couple of URLS and I have tried the follwing one : "http://map.ns.ec.gc.ca/MapServer/mapserv.exe?map=/mapserver/services/en vdat/config.map" I have tried WFS post requests describefeature and getfeature with this service and It responds correctly. It is a Mapserve 4.8.3. I am guessing that there is something 'wrong" with the service accessed though the script at http://map.ns.ec.gc.ca/envdat/map.aspx where the post requests are not maybe transfered properly to Mapserver. Hopefully this helps. Best Regards, Frank Steggink wrote: > Hello Daniel, > > Thanks for the reply. I've tried your suggestion, but unfortunately it > didn't work.
